One of Disneyland’s philosophies says, “All lines keep moving.” In other words, no one should be standing still while waiting for a ride. And so, through elaborate twists and turns, the lines in the park weave their way around multiple corners and obstacles till you’re finally ready to board your ride. Truth is, your wait was never reduced at all; you simply thought it was. You never really made more progress; you just thought you did. By keeping you moving, they capitalized on the power of illusion. Consequently, because you felt they were getting you to your ride quickly, your enjoyment increased.
